Ingredients
Method
  1. 1

    Add the crushed cardamom pod to a shaker. Lightly muddle it to release its aroma.

  2. 2

    Pour in Blenders Pride whisky, saffron syrup, and fresh lemon juice into the shaker.

  3. 3

    Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

    💡 Shake longer for more dilution and chill.

  4. 4

    Strain the cocktail into a rocks glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with saffron strands and a star anise.

    💡 Double strain for a smoother texture.

Bartender's Tip

🍸 Lightly muddle cardamom to release oils without bitterness; double strain for smoothness.

Why It Works

Whisky's depth complements saffron's floral notes, while cardamom adds warmth and lemon provides balance.
